ts - Puts me in mind of 'This World is Phuhl o' a Number o. Things' by St Andrew. The whole piece is eminently quotable, but I can't find a copy of the lyrics, and I wouldn't know how to start transcribing it myself. It may or may not be inspired by RL Stevenson's 'The world is so full of a number of things'. Please take time to have a look at the youtube link, you won't be disappointed.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Jz6LJXUqhI

JB - true enough, but it's my own personal mondegreen and I'm very fond of it.

Iggy interview from 1977 as replicated by Mogwai on their second album 'Come On Die Young'

"I'll tell you about punk rock: punk rock is a word used by dilettantes and ah... and ah... heartless manipulators about music that takes up the energies and the bodies and the hearts and the souls and the time and the minds of young men who give what they have to it and give everything they have to it and it's a... it's a term that's based on contempt, it's a term that's based on fashion, style, elitism, satanism and everything that's rotten about rock 'n' roll. I don't know Johnny Rotten but I'm sure... I'm sure he puts as much blood and sweat into what he does as Sigmund Freud did. You see, what sounds to you like a big load of trashy old noise is in fact the brilliant music of a genius, myself . And that music is so powerful that it's quite beyond my control and ah... when I'm in the grips of it I don't feel pleasure and I don't feel pain, either physically or emotionally. Do you understand what I'm talking about? Have you ever felt like that? When you just couldn't feel anything and you didn't want to either. You know? Like that? Do you understand what I'm saying sir?"

>>>Well you can stick your nine to five livin' And your collar and your tie You can stick your moral standards 'Cause it's all a dirty lie You can stick your golden handshake And you can stick your silly rules And all the other sXXt That you teach to kids in school ('Cause I ain't no fool)
